Kioke Breweries Revival Episode1 YAMAROKU SOY SAUCE in Shodoshima island,Japan _ヤマロク醤油(香川県 小豆島)

Yasuo Yamamoto , a 5th-generation soy sauce producer on Shodoshima Island in Western Japan, started crafting wooden barrels himself. This was to preserve the traditional wooden barrel brewing method of soy sauce for the next generation. The body and flavor of soy sauce is imbued by microorganisms that inhabit the wooden barrels and breweries. However, due to industrialization, wooden barrel craftspeople have disappeared and usable wooden barrels could be lost in a few decades. Mr. Yamamoto started to reach out to fellow soy sauce brewers across Japan to encourage them to use his wooden barrels. “My job is not to make soy sauce. It is to connect our generation with the next. My ancestors have done the same.” We’ll take a close look at the Yamamoto and his unique way of having dual professions of crafting wooden barrels and brewing soy sauce.

    I agree, it would be such a waste to see this craft disappear. He would honor his family if he could make a channel about this.

    Interesting to see the old craft just surviving. My craft was boatbuilding (wood). Wooden boats were replaced by fibreglass boats back then. I hope that barrel making and soy sauce brewing will survive.

    Takuanさん、メッセージありがとうございます。木造船の技術は日本でもほとんど目にすることがなくなりましたが、人間と木の関係やその技術は非常に美しく根源的なものだと思います。木桶の醸造文化を後世に伝えていけるよう頑張って参りますので、これからも応援お願いします。

    Hands down! I bought the CRANE soy sauce aged 4 years old which is the most fancier version. The rebrewery method! It tastes phenomenal! I paid a premium price for it… I paid 75 dollars Canadian. I knew beforehand it was a markup price but I didn’t mind paying that much for one single bottle! I like supporting old traditional craftsmanship and small family business as well!
